Muscle loss
If the main food intake is insufficient for a long time, the body may not be able to maintain the original metabolic cycle, thereby accelerating the process of muscle loss.
Ketoacidosis
Long-term deprivation of healthy carbohydrate foods can lead to hypoglycemia, incomplete fat metabolism, and ketone production. It can also cause symptoms of ketoacidosis such as headaches, nausea, drowsiness, and fatigue.
Affects sleep
Long-term consumption of insufficient carbohydrate-containing foods will affect insulin secretion and increase the risk of insomnia. Too little sleep can easily disrupt insulin secretion, leading to insulin resistance.
Depressed mood response
Food can provide carbohydrates, but not eating these foods for a long time will result in insufficient carbohydrate intake, causing symptoms such as slow reactions and depression.
Affects the body's endocrine system
Not eating foods containing carbohydrates for a long time will also affect sex hormone levels. Women may have trouble with menstrual disorders, while men may experience sexual dysfunction and other symptoms.
